OSS and BSS in New Product Directory

The TeleManagement Forum has launched a new online product directory for the telecom industry. The directory will serve as a one-stop-shop for Operations Support Systems (OSS) and Business Support Systems (BSS) products and services.

TM Forum members can submit their product and service offerings free of charge to be included in the new directory, and visitors to the TM Forum Web site will be able to view the products listed in the directory.
